I'm relatively new to the T-bolt forums (coming from Nexus one), so apologies if I missed this somewhere:

Has anyone received a throttling notification from Verizon? If so, does it come via text, email, snail mail or do they just all of a sudden start slowing you down?

Also, does anyone know if any of the current roms have any work arounds in the system files to overcome Verizon's limitations?

U can PM me if you do not want to post in public.

Much appreciated!!!

I think they just slow you down if your in top 5% of data users and you have consumed so much data in one pay period. They just slow your connection down, don't think you get warning or notification of any kind. But could be wrong.

Verizon doesn't throttle general users. Occasionally a user will get flagged and throttled down to very limited bandwidth. They will be contacted by phone and if unreachable, then by letter. Say for instance you jump from 4 or 5 GB a month to 20 GB in a day. I don't know the exact numbers, just seen it happen. Its done by the fraud department until they can speak with you.

@revaew I use both phones for now. A pain, but I want the next nexus for development and have no idea what network its going to land on.
